AuthorTopic: As it says - Introducing myself (Read 4815 times)

I have just got Vector Light up and running on an old laptop:Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 800Mhz 256Mb 14Gb.

I recently found XP became unusable on this old machine due to the increased memory requirements of updated software. I tried a lot of live CDs and was about to resign myself to a new laptop when I found Vector Linux. I am very impressed with the way it installed and the speed everything runs at on this old hardware, but I have a lot of questions.

I have been using computers for 25 yrs since I set up an Amstrad PCW running CPM Plus to do business applications but I have never been a computer professional and have no special knowledge of Linux.

Hello Mit. Hope you'll stick around. Yes, things seem a bit quiet on the forum at the moment and I think the main reason is that lots of regulars are working really hard to get the next release (VL7) ready. But as vectornewb says, there are some nice ppl around who are eager to help so I hope you'll enjoy your time with VL.Andy
